Carol again:
Not surprising. The AP is a news source for many reputable papers, the
NYT among them. But the article didn't originate in the NYT. It only
appeared there.

Carol, not quite sure what Cabal's point was

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

My point was, that online sources could be coming from almost anywhere, but
a source such as the NYT has filters and standards in place, they don't want
to be caught reporting on something completely erroneous, so they are more
reliable / believable than "Yahoo" or some other online source that picks up
stories unfiltered. Quite often the NYT and other such papers will actually
report when the AP or Reuters miss-reports, unlike Yahoo which simply shows
the AP or Reuters story.

That was Cabal's point.
